What Causes Constant Itching On The Heel Despite Taking Medication?
I had my workmans comp doc prescribe me bacitracin for a laceration on my heel; I put it on for the second time this evening and its itching very badly; He had told me to stop using neosporin because he thought I was having a reaction to it; now this is making the wound itch worse; am I allergic to this too?

Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to an allergic reaction.
I suggest using antihistamines such as Levocetirizine.
I also suggest using Calmine lotion for local application.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
